Samyang AF 18mm F2.8 E-Mount Lens Rental in Surrey, BC
A small autofocus wide-angle prime for Sony E-mount bodies like the A7 IV, A7S III and FX3. It covers full frame with a 100° view, weighs 145 g and focuses as close as 25 cm, so it suits gimbal and vlog work, tight interiors and night skies at f/2.8. On an APS-C body like the FX30 it frames like a 27mm. It takes 58mm filters, so our Hoya 58mm variable ND fits. For a zoom that starts wider, take the Sony FE PZ 16-35 f/4.

Good to know
- The front and rear caps, the hood and a 58mm UV filter are in the case.
- Samyang doesn't list any weather sealing, so keep it out of the rain.
- There's no stabilization in the lens. The FX3, A7 IV and A7S III steady it with their in-body stabilization.
